.ISO Compatibility 

 

Only with TVisto

 can you create your own Virtual DVD Library by storing your private 

collection of DVDs (.ISO format) and watch them as if they were running from the original 
DVDs. 
 
Once the movies are stored in TVisto as .ISO files, you can play them just like an original 
DVD with full DVD functions: Menu, Chapter selection, Audio stream selection, Subtitle 
selection, Fast Forward, Fast Backward, Slow, Pause, Step Forward, Repeat and Search are 
all included. 
 
An ISO file is the image file on a DVD disk. ISO image files are widely used to store, then 
transfer DVD contents through the Internet. ISO is a common DVD image format for DOS, 
Windows, Mac OSX, Linux and other operating systems. TVisto can play the .ISO file exactly 
the same as if it was running from the original DVD.  
 
The produced files are huge in 
size, but this is not a limitation 
for TVisto. As already 
mentioned, TVisto supports any 
of the FAT32, NTFS or HFS+ 
file systems. 

Note: The largest 

single file size on FAT32 is 
4GB! If your ISO is bigger 
then that, you will have to 
format your hard drive using 
a different format. 

 

 
The adjacent figure depicts 
various .ISO movies that have been produced in less than 12 min each.   
 
 
 

TVisto is not designed or intended to, and may not be used to violate any copyrights 
or other IP (Intellectual Property) rights. Each user of TVisto may only use it in 
connection with materials legally owned by or licensed to the user, and only extend 
such ownership or license rights that will permit such use. 

 
 
 

XviD Compatibility  

XviD is an ISO MPEG-4 compliant video codec. It is not a product; it is an open source 
project which is developed and maintained by groups of people all over the world.  

TVisto is fully compatible with XviD format and can play any movie encoded with this 
compression format except files encoded using GMC or Qpel.
